Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups Rice Chex cereal
- 3 cups Mini pretzels
- 1 cup Dry roasted peanuts (optional)
- 2 cups Salted popcorn (optional, popped)
- 1 cup M&M candies
- 12 ounces White chocolate chips or almond bark
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Rice Chex cereal, mini pretzels, dry roasted peanuts, salted popcorn (if using), and M&M candies.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips or almond bark in 30-second increments, stirring after each interval until smooth and fully melted. Avoid overheating to prevent the chocolate from seizing.
Pour the melted white chocolate over the dry mixture in the large bowl. Use a large spoon or spatula to gently toss and coat all ingredients evenly with the white chocolate.
Spread the coated mixture onto a large sheet of parchment paper or a non-stick baking sheet, ensuring it is in an even layer.
Allow the mix to cool and the white chocolate to harden completely. This should take about 20 minutes at room temperature or 10 minutes in the refrigerator.
Once hardened, break the mix into clusters or pieces and transfer to a serving bowl or an airtight container for storage.
Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
